ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF WATER COMMISSIONERS


To the Citizens of Attleborough :


The Water Commissioners herewith submit their eighteenth annual report for the year ending December 31, 1910.


Appended will be found the report of the Superintend- ent and Registrar, in which a detailed statement of statis- tics pertaining to the work is presented.


¥ Mr. W. P. Whittemore, our chief engineer at the Pumping Station, resigned August Ist, on account of poor health. This was greatly to be regretted, as he was a man of sterling qualities, excellent capabilities, and had long experience in water works engineering. He grew gradually weaker and died September 23rd. Mr. John Joseph was appointed to fill the vacancy caused by his resignation.


The most important undertaking of the year has been the further development of the present source of supply by the construction of a storage reservoir on the branch brook, which joins the Seven Mile River just above Washington street, in North Attleborough. The neces- sity for this additional storage and the increase in the possible daily draft from the supply, resulting from the construction of this reservoir, at an estimated cost of $83,000.00, were set forth in our last annual report.


On June Ioth bids were received for the building of the dam and other necessary work and the contract was awarded to Bruno & Petitti, the lowest bidders. Work was immediately begun and carried along until stopped by cold weather in the early part of December. At this time the main embankment had been raised to about elevation 200., or 6 feet below the finished surface, and the slope pavement completed to elevation 191. Up to this latter elevation water can be held in the coming spring, or a total of 60,000,000 gallons. On January 18th the reservoirs had filled to elevation 183., the condition shown by the views herewith presented.

ANNUAL REPORT


The construction of the dam involved the excavation of a core-wall trench below the natural surface to rock or other satisfactory material, and the refilling of this trench with clay puddle to serve as a cut-off of under- ground leakage. In some places the depth of this trench exceeded forty (40) feet and, as practically none of the embankment could be placed until this sub-surface work was done, the resulting delay prevented the completion of the contract during the past season.


In the bottom of the core-wall trench a concrete bond- ing wall was constructed on the rock and above this the trench was filled with selected puddle of gravel and clay, fortunately obtainable within the limits of the reservoir and near the site of the dam. All sheeting was removed and the puddle placed in thin layers and thoroughly spaded and compacted in the trench. Above the natural surface, from which all soil was stripped until the hard- pan was exposed, the embankment was constructed in six-inch layers, and watered and rolled by a heavy grooved roller, the necessary water being obtained from the public supply of North Attleborough. The material obtainable within a short distance of the dam and within the limits of the reservoir was a hardpan composed of gravel and clay, very favorable for construction of a water-tight embankment, although extremely difficult to excavate and requiring the use of explosives.


In the re-location of Hoppin Hill Road and the con- struction of the embankment necessary to raise this road above the flow line of the reservoir, the material for fill- ing was obtained from within the area to be flooded, in this way a very considerable portion of the reservoir be- ing stripped of surface soil at no extra expense. This road is completed with the exception of the final sur- facing.


The work remaining to be done includes the raising of the embankment of the dam about six feet, the comple- tion of the paving, and the construction of the overflow-


158


ANNUAL REPORT


weir, outlet channel and aerator and the general trim- ming up of the embankment and approaches. The cost of the work will be about $65,000.00, not including land damages, and the total expenditure well.within the esti- mate given in our report of last year.


The necessity for this additional storage has been again emphasized by the small rainfall and limited runoff of the past year, which, while not so critical as in the preceding two years, has made it necessary to pump water from Orr's Pond 158 hours, during twenty-five days, 31,000,000 gallons being drawn from this pond and purified by pass- ing through the percolating area surrounding the wells That this amount could be taken from Orr's Pond with- out lowering the water more than two feet below the. masonry crest of the dam (el. 94.5) was due to the flash= boards, which have been erected and which raised the pond level twenty-two inches above the crest of the dam. The advantage of this increased storage, thus demon- strated, suggested the advisability of permanently rais- ing the dam and so avoiding the constant expense of re- pairing and replacing wooden flashboards, and in Novem- ber, when the pond had been drawn down, this work was undertaken. For seventy-five feet of the ninety-foot length of the dam the crest has been raised two feet by a concrete parapet. In the remaining fifteen feet the old crest was cut down eighteen inches, and a sluiceway three feet six inches deep, controlled by a wooden gate which is operated by a mechanical lifting device, supported on an overhead concrete beam, has been provided. By this arrangement storm flows can be controlled without flood- ing land adjacent to the pond, and at the same time the water can be held to a level two feet above that of the old crest. The increased storage, including that in the surrounding ground, is probably not less than 40,000,000 gallons, or in other words the effective storage of Orr's Pond has been practically doubled, with a result that 125,000 to 150,000 gallons has been added to the possible

daily draft from the source of supply. The cost of this work will probably be about $1,500.00.


We cannot too strongly emphasize the value of the percolating area adjacent to the wells. Without this means of purification, thereby making it possible to utilize the storage in Orr's Pond, the town would have experienced a shortage of supply during each of the last three years, as has been actually the case in many com- munities owing to the extremely low rainfall and runoff. Reference to the table of analyses by the State Board of Health, presented in another page of this report, shows that the water thus purified by passing through the per- colating area has been of a quality equally as good as the natural ground water. There can be no question that the money expended in the development of this means of purification has been well justified.


The pumping plant continues in excellent condition, the Barr pump showing good economy and the Deane being held in reserve for use in case of accident to the higher duty apparatus.


During the year several minor leaks in the stand pipe were repaired by grouting, done by air pressure with the tank full. That no mistake was made in the choice of reinforced concrete for this structure is shown by the number of tanks built of the same material during the past year, as a result of our experience.


The growth of the system is well indicated by the ex- tensions made during the year, 3.58 miles of mains hav- ing been laid and 30 hydrants placed, additions equiva- lent to about 6% of the previously existing pipe line and hydrants. The use of the automobile, as shown by the report of the Superintendent, has been of great benefit in attending to repairs of the pipe system promptly and in the saving of labor. Under these conditions we be- lieve it would be an advantage to have one more in the department.


The consumption of water has increased during the


160


ANNUAL REPORT


year, but probably not to a greater.extent than justified by legitimately increasing use. The fact that the per capita requirement is only 50.5 gallons per day indicates the pipe system to be in good condition and the meter service a valuable factor in the conservation of the supply.


Not for the purpose of obtaining any personal credit, but that the citizens of Attleborough may better appre- ciate how great an asset the water service is to the town, compared to that furnished in other communities, we in- vite a mental valuation of the local plant.


In the first place the water, in point of purity and in freedom from color, odor, hardness or iron, is of a charac- ter which in many communities is daily purchased by householders from venders of spring waters. Here spring water or its equivalent runs from every faucet. Again it is to be noted that the pipe system is relatively new, and its present value at least equal to its original cost. Further, ample storage has been provided at such an elevation and the pipe system is of such capacity that, with the maximum number of hose streams in use, eighty pounds pressure can be maintained at the hydrants. without running the pumps, a fire service duplicated in few cities and one which guarantees a security from con- flagration losses difficult to estimate in actual value. Be- yond this, a comparison of operating charges and water rates prove that the local service is cheaply furnished, a result made possible by conservation of the supply and reduction in the amount pumped by the existence of a pipe system free from leakage and a meter service care- fully maintained.


For several years we have called your attention to the inadequate recognition of the fire protection rendered by the water plant. The $6,000.00 appropriated by the Town does not express the value of this service to prop- erty generally and independent of the actual water con- sumed. It is not fair to consumers to require them to

pay for the protection of property which may contribute little or nothing to the department. Such protection can only be expressed by an allowance for hydrants fur- nished and, if instead of $6,000.00 yearly or the equiva- lent of $12.00 per hydrant, a larger sum were granted the Water Department, the rates to consumers could be lowered, and the benefits derived from the system more equitably expressed.


Following will be found a table showing the growth of the department from year to year and a statement of the estimated income and expenditures :

ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT


To the Honorable Board of Water Commissioners :


Gentlemen-Complying with the town ordinance, I hereby respectfully submit to you the Superintendent's eighteenth annual report for the year 1910:


Distribution System.


This year there have been 37 extensions of main pipe on 34 streets. Of these 15 were under guarantees, the others where the income was sufficient to cover 5%, or to connect up dead ends. These extensions amounted to 18,887 feet or 3.58 miles, which is 6,445 feet more than in 1910, or 1.22 miles, showing an unusual amount for the year.


The longest extensions are Robinson avenue, 4,550 feet of six-inch pipe; Lindsey street, 2,213 feet of six- inch pipe; Mendon road, 1,624 feet of six-inch pipe ; County street, 1,387 feet of six-inch pipe; Pond street, 849 feet of six-inch pipe; and Lamb street, 1,088 feet of eight-inch pipe. Guarantees were given for extensions on Pond street, Leedham street and Brown street, which will be laid the coming year.


The requests for extensions are rapidly increasing, owing to the number of new plats laid out. There is every indication of a rapid growth in the south part of the town off Washington street, although it is impossible at this time to estimate what the demands will be.


The cost of extensions in 1910 was $20,008.28, and it is reasonable to assume that it will require an equal amount the coming year.


Services.


Number of new services, 146. Total number of serv- ices, 2,380.


164


ANNUAL REPORT


There have been six old services replaced with cement lined pipe.


Amount of service pipe laid as follows :


2,197 feet from main to service box.


4,653 feet from service box to cellar.


Total service pipe laid, 6,850 feet, or 1.3 miles.


Amount paid construction account for services laid $2,665.25


Value of materials used in services and credited


to maintenance account. 1,084.28


$1,581.97


I wish at this time to warn those who are building or piping houses to avoid the use of galvanized iron pipe or galvanized range boilers if they wish to prevent rust in water, which invariably is caused by galvanized pipes. It is a well known fact that the town water acts on gal- vanized or lead pipe. The department, in their part of the service, use cement and tin-lined pipe and if the same or some other non-corrosive material were used inside the house the rusty water would be eliminated. The rust is more noticeable during the months of August, Sep- tember and October, when the temperature of the water is the highest, and for this reason the rust is more noticeable in the hot water fixtures than in the cold.


Hydrants.


Thirty hydrants have been added, making a total of 450 public hydrants. One old hydrant was replaced. Total number of private hydrants, 18. All have been in- spected and flushed at regular intervals during the sum- mer months and a record of the same kept. A complete list of the locations of all hydrants is found in this re- port.


165


ANNUAL REPORT


Leaks.


Total number of leaks, 47. Of these 23 were service leaks, 7 hydrants, 6 gates and II leaks on main pipe. Considering the mileage of pipe and the number of serv- ices, it shows an exceptionally small number of leaks. On the mains one to every 1.5 miles and services one to every 100.


Gate Valves.


Number of new gates, 35 ; gate boxes, 58. There have been very few complaints this year of gate boxes pro- jecting above grade. The department has looked after them very carefully and the curbing of sidewalks has been a great help. We should consider it a favor to be notified of any that are dangerous to travel.

Pumping Station.


The interior of the station has been painted and is now in a very clean and neat condition. The grounds about the station have been well cared for and I believe in the near future more grading should be done and more

shrubbery added so as to make attractive grounds. The pumping machinery and boilers are in good condition.


I believe it well at this time to state the advantage the automobile service has been to the department. We have been able to attend promptly to leaks and meter troubles in all parts of the town and save much expense in labor, besides the accommodation it has been to the public, and should recommend one more to be added to the department and keep only one horse. Comparing the team account of 1909 with 1910, which includes the cost of the auto-truck, it only increased $95.53, and the de- crease in the maintenance pay roll account for the same period was $870.55, showing a saving of $775.02.


The work at the new reservoir and at Orr's Pond. has occupied a large part of my time. During the early part of the year it was necessary to travel over a large sec- tion of the towns of Attleboro, North Attleboro, Wren- tham and Norton, investigating possible sources of sup- ply. After deciding our new source, Hoppin Hill, it has required considerable time and travel, as the reservoir site is six miles from Attleboro centre. The work on the new reservoir and Orr's dam is fully explained in the Commissioners' report.
